James gives more insight to his MIND

 If at the end God picks some to be in his heavenly choir and they live in his light forever singing songs of praise for eternity, that will probably be because that is what they conceive heaven to be. I on the other hand would find that an absolute Hell. He would probably cast me into the abyss (from the choirs’ perspective) of playing my Les Paul very loud at a party with my other “sinner” Friends. We might even be doomed to having endless philosophical discussions. Now to some this would be Hell, to me it would be Heaven. So it is in this human existence, what some find pleasing, others abhor. If in the end we become one with all and are totally serene I will be good with that. Because we are all, in my option, parts of the separated whole I am sure that I will find (or be given) the exact place I belong.  This includes my body returning to the dust that it was made of to perpetuate the natural order. I may offend some here, but the idea of isolating my physical vessel from the rest of nature in a coffin would be, to use a common term, purgatory.  I would not be, as I was, yet not allowed to become part of the natural order, to be recycled for the benefit of the whole. To me the end of human existence should be rejoiced as ascension, instead of being ego driven by those around us as a loss to be mourned. I admit that we do suffer personal loss by the death of a loved one, but if we accept we are part of the greater whole we should mourn for those of us left behind still isolated from the whole. I believe that the universe, God, the natural order to be the same, and as mankind we lead an isolated frustrating existence, knowing we are a part of a greater whole that in this moment we are separated from. That does not exclude the concept of reincarnation, it is more evidence of it.  Just as trees are born, live, and die, the fact is they become the fertile soil that promotes new life. So we to become the “soil” both physically and spiritually for new life. Just as we are separated yet still part of the whole, we may return in other forms as new life.
